Sampdoria v Sassuolo Preview:
Relegated Sampdoria will be looking forward to the end of the season as they host Sassuolo at the Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris on Friday night. The hosts currently sit 20th in the table, six points behind 19th placed Cremonese as they look favorites to finish the campaign bottom of the table. The former Serie A champions have had a difficult season, winning just 3 of their 36 matches in the Serie A – and with two games remaining, they will be playing for pride more than anything else. Dejan Stankovic’s side have struggled at both ends of the pitch, with no other team having scored less or conceded more than La Stamp this season. A 5-1 humiliation last weekend at the hands of AC Milan meant Sampdoria have won just one of their last 21 matches across all competitions. They also have the worst home record this season, having won just 1 out of 18 at the Stadio Comunale Luigi Ferraris – losing 11 in the process. As Sampdoria prepare for their first relegation since 2011-12, they’ll be hoping to end their home campaign on a positive note against Sassuolo, against whom they won the reverse fixture 2-1 back in January.
The visitors Sassuolo haven’t been in great form themselves, sitting 13th in the table currently. With fresh defeats against Inter and Monza, Alessio Dionisi’s men have won just 2 of their last 9 matches – conceding in 8 of them. With a six-point deficit to 10th places Torino, Sassuolo looks destined to finish outside the top half, which wouldn’t be a surprise looking at the below-par season they have had. Dionisi’s side have lost each of their last four away trips, and have conceded at least two goals in seven of their last eight away matches. This could bode well for a cagey affair on Friday night to see which of the teams commits more mistakes – especially with the disastrous defensive form of both teams. Sassuolo though will be hoping to seek revenge for the loss in the reverse fixture, as the likes of Pinamonti and Berardi look to take advantage of a demotivated Sampdoria side who are already down and out.
